Summary

This study is testing whether simple urine tests that check if people are taking their HIV medication properly and measure their virus levels can help people stay on treatment longer and keep the virus under control. The research involves 539 people in South Africa who are starting HIV treatment for the first time. Half will receive the new urine testing approach, while the other half will receive standard care to compare which works better.
